Well one of my greatest friends of all time got married on Saturday. The week was hectic, crazy, and out of control but the wedding was in a word perfect! Stacy looked gorgeous, like a bridal model in a magazine and the wedding came together as a beautiful tribute to the love they have for each other. I was so blessed to be the Matron of Honor and was happy to stand beside her as she married this glorious man. I may post a picture tomorrow.
What does this mean for weight loss? I think I have gained a lot of weight since I last posted my weight. I feel fatter. I haven't had much time to get to the gym and I have been entertianing many friends which means a lot of eating, not much sleeping and a lot of drinking! Almost every evening was spend with a 6 pack, at least. We had a great time but I am very disappointed in myself. Today was supposed to be the last I got back on track but because my house is a mess and I still have no gone to the grocery store I have not made any great effort. I did not over indulge today but I did not keep myself in check like I should have.
On a good note, my husband came to me yesterday and says he really wants to shed some pounds as well, and wants to create a plan for the two of us to work together over the next few months. I think it will be fun to plan healthy meals together and have a gym buddie again. Hopefully we will work on that plan this week. Um, well yeah, thats what life looks like right now.
I read thenest and found your blog through that. I am not overweight myself, but due to health issues, I need to keep my weight in check by eating a very clean diet and exercise regularly (otherwise, I put on 10 lbs in a week). In that sense, I understand your frustrations about all the "abnormal" things that need to be done to maintain and meet my expectations about my goals so I don't become disappointed with the way things are going. I hate it when people celebrate a birthday at work with cake. I can't have any and its just a huge temptation!! Just know that by posting this blog, you are inspiring people you don't know. I hope your husband does join you on this quest because I know without the support of mine, it would have been much harder to just step away from the food. I call him all the time from work to talk me away from the vending machine. :) Good luck!
